He nodded...It made sense...the rebels didn't care about his name, "I was
told that in the rebel interrogations."

  "You should be careful about what you believe from the Rebels, sir.  They

By now they had reached the officer's mess.  There were a few others in the
room.  Van Der Loo, of course, plus a pair of Captains and a Pair of
Commanders.  Hewitt took a seat as Van Der Loo made the introductions.

"Captain Boulay, this is Captain Johnson, my chief of staff, Captain Larsen
the Commanding officer of this starbase, Commanders Renault and Wisemann, my
personal aide and station operations officer, and you know Commander Hewitt
of course."  the Admiral said pointing to an empty chair that was prepared
for David.
